Cytokines in Human Health: Immunotoxicology, Pathology, and
Therapeutic Applications explores the role of cytokines in
immunotoxicology and human health using a variety of complex
methods, from basic research to highly applied therapeutic
applications. The first section of the book is devoted to basic
concepts of cytokine biology, especially as this relates to the
practice of immunotoxicology. Chapters in this section review the
ability of external influences to modify the expression,
production, and activity of these molecules. The second section
provides a broad understanding of the range of cytokine activity in
human disease, describing methods for assessing cytokine
immunotoxicity. In the third and final section of the book, the
increasingly important use of cytokines as therapeutics is explored
in detail. This section includes examinations into the effects of
cytokines on the immune system and in treating cancer. Timely and
comprehensive, Cytokines in Human Health: Immunotoxicology,
Pathology, and Therapeutic Applications will serve as both a primer
and a starting point for a more detailed investigation of the role
these fascinating biological regulators play in human health and
disease.
